Srinagar, Nov 25::: PDP President Mehbooba Mufti has strongly condemned the attack on Mirwaiz Omar Farooq in Chandigarh today. In a statement the party President said roughing up of the prominent religious and political leader of Kashmir was highly condemnable act which had to be disapproved by any one believing in freedom of speech.
Mehbooba Mufti said right to express ones views is a fundamental right and any attempt to curb it through illegal and strong arm methods was fascist and undemocratic. In any case Mirwaiz was only attending a seminar with a view to exchanging of ideas in a peaceful, civilized and democratic manner, she pointed out. The intolerance shown by the attackers is an antithesis of that spirit and strong action should be taken against them, she demanded.
